Rona is owned by a US private equity firm. It was Canadian, but not for years now.

God damn. What does that mean in terms of tax, etc? They still pay corporation tax and whatnot in Canada? Profits, etc. reported in Canada or repatriated to the US?

What about Home Hardware?

home hardware is canadian... but at least in my small community they are very small stores
